  • Analysis of ras gene mutations in rainbow trout tumors

    Creator:
    Chang, Yung-jin
    Abstract:
    For ras gene mutation analysis in the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) model system, a partial trout ras sequence was identified using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Two synthetic oligonucleotides based on rat K-ras gene sequence were used as primers for the PCR procedure. A 90 base pair (bp) sequence, referred...

  • Protein-protein interactions involved in baculovirus DNA replication

    Creator:
    Evans, Jay T.
    Abstract:
    The yeast two-hybrid system was used to examine interactions between the nine proteins involved in baculovirus DNA replication. From the six proteins required for DNA replication, four protein-protein interactions were identified, including an interaction between LEF-1 and LEF-2, LEF-3 and itself, LEF-3 and P143 (Helicase), and an interaction between IE-1...

  • Characterization of the infection cycle of the Orgyia pseudotsugata multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus in Lymantria dispar cells

    Creator:
    Bradford, Mary Beth
    Abstract:
    The Baculoviridae is a family of DNA viruses which are obligate pathogens for a variety of insects. Baculovirus strains came to the attention of researchers because they provided a nonchemical alternative for the biological control of insect pests of agriculture and forestry (Ignoffo, 1968); however, recently they have been studied...

  • Transcriptional repression mediated by a novel family of C₂H₂ zinc finger proteins

    Creator:
    Senawong, Thanaset
    Abstract:
    Two novel and highly related C₂H₂ zinc finger proteins (CTIP1/BCL11A/EVI9 and CTIP2/BCL11B/Rit1) have been implicated in COUP-TF signaling, etiology of myeloid and lymphoid malignancies, and hematopoietic cell development. However, the precise cellular function(s) and the contribution of these proteins to neoplastic processes and hematopoietic cell development remain unknown. The goal...

  • Polyion sensors based on induced ion extraction

    Creator:
    Fordyce, Katherine
    Abstract:
    A novel method for detecting the peptidase activity of clinically relevant peptidases was investigated using solid-contact electrochemical polyion sensors under chronopotentiometric control. Complete instrumental control over ion-extraction was accomplished by incorporating a lipophilic electrolyte into the ion-selective membrane; the sensors had no intrinsic ion-exchange capabilities. The sensors were used to...

  • Genetic recombination of the integrative plasmid pMC7105 of Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola involves repetitive sequences

    Creator:
    Szabo, Leslie J.
    Abstract:
    A strain of the phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola, a pathogen of common bean Phaseolus vulgaris, harbors a 150 kilobase pair (kb) plasmid pMC7105. In one strain, LR719, pMC7105 is stably integrated in the bacterial chromosome. Imprecise excision of the pMC7105 replicon has been shown to result in the...

  • Development of PCR-based markers for identifying grape rootstocks

    Creator:
    Xu, Hong, 1968-
    Abstract:
    Sequence-specific PCR markers were derived from one new and eight previously identified random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers for the purpose of identifying grape (Vitis) rootstocks. The markers were developed because the RAPD assay was found to be inconsistent and the original RAPD markers unreliable. Southern hybridization analysis of the...

    Henriquez, Jose Luis, 1961-
    Abstract:
    The objective of this dissertation is to introduce low-cost processing methods for the fabrication of ZnO transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs). A novel method for depositing ZnO body layers via spin-coating of a zinc nitrate-based spin solution is presented. The processing conditions of spin-coated ZnO are optimized to produce continuous and...

  • Proteomic approach to the analysis of DNA-binding proteins using mass spectrometry

    Creator:
    Stapels, Martha Degen
    Abstract:
    In proteomic studies, separate experimental protocols have been necessary to identify proteins, determine their function, and predict their three-dimensional structure. In this study, a function-based separation of proteins was conceived to fractionate proteins prior to enzymatic digestion. In the initial demonstration of this technique, a DNA substrate was used to...
